Disneyland Tram

The Disneyland tram is a free shuttle service that transports visitors of the Disneyland Resort to the resort from all parking areas.

Trams operate daily until one hour after the last park closes.  This is wonderful if you decide to leave the parks and check out what's happening nearby at the hotels or Downtown Disney.

When learning about Disneyland vacation tips, you simply must learn about your transportation options.

Disneyland Tram Tips

• If you have a stroller, head to the very front of back of the tram for a larger seating area.  There's plenty of room for loading a stoller - no need to fold!
  
  
• Look for a tram queue with the least amount of waiting visitors.  However, the tram holds a lot of people, so don't be discouraged if you're waiting with a lot of people.
  
  
• If you miss one tram, the next tram will be along within minutes.  This is nice when you're traveling with little ones who don't want to wait!
  
  
• When exiting the tram, watch your head!  The roof of the tram is lower than it seems.

Other Ways to Get to the Parks

"But what if I've parked offsite at a nearby parking lot or parking structure?"

You have some options!

You can walk if you've parked in a nearby parking lot.  Overflow lots are pretty close to the resort.  Young visitors may not be happy, but it's not a bad walk.

If you've been routed to an offsite parking structure, you'll probably travel to the resort entrance by private bus.  This is rather nice because the buses drop off visitors right at the park entrance!  

The one bit of bad news is that if you've been routed to offsite parking, the parks might be a bit crowded.  But if you've decided to visit later in the day, that may only be a problem for a short time.

One Final Note...

Pay close attention to where you park and how you get to the Disneyland tram.

The reason for this is because it is easy to get turned around as you head to the tram loading area.  

Take note of any walkways you use and what level you've parked on.

But most of all...
